Sorry, it seems I missed that indeed.
Probably because I checked for binary dependencies only, so the build dep
slipped through. I double-checked now, and thankfully ggz-kde-client is the only
package affected by this.

As Josef agreed to update the package, I will keep the Howl compat package removed.

Cheers and sorry again for the inconvenience,

Michael
